Should be an interesting feature, anyway. I find it odd that Silvervision hasn't confirmed the rumoured Hogan DVD line-up yet, though.

WarGames 1987 and 1994 should of been the wrestling matches!

[Guest Coffey]

Well, if they slap every manager/valet they're ever had in the company on the DVD, I guess they don't have to worry about leaving anyone out.

 

Maybe this is an indication that mangers might be coming back (please)?

 

Slick better be on that bitch! "It's all about the monnay!"

There better be several JJ Dillion interviews.

[Guest Dam(o)nYankees]

I will own that

Any word on the running time of this?

[Dangerous A 0]

I know a lot of you will be gushing all over the usual suspects like Heenan and Heyman, but check out the Grand Wizard. If the guy had been alive during the 80's, he'd be getting a lot more run. He was very much the Billy Graham of managers in that he was way ahead of his time promowise.

FUJI VICE!

 

sold.

I demand some retrospects from Heenan, Heyman etc.

 

And in other news, in Coffey's sig Ric Flair looks like Gary Busey.

The main feature should be interesting, but I'm not sure it guarantees a buy on my part just yet.

That picture scared me a bit.

Awesome.

the evolution of female managers

 

Shouldn't the management skills improve for it to be called an evolution?

I know he wasn't WWE...but if you're including greatest managers, no list is complete without General Skandor Akbar.

Or Paul Ellering, Gary Hart, Mr. Fuji, JJ Dillion, Sir Oliver Humperdink.

I think we'll be seeing the Shotgun Saturday Night Segment with Fondle Me Elmo.

Or Paul Ellering, Gary Hart, Mr. Fuji, JJ Dillion, Sir Oliver Humperdink.

Fuji Vice is included, which suggests Fuji's part of the "and many more" category. Let's not front, though: he was a one-dimensional manager.

this looks pretty cool IMO. Id buy it.

Oh come on, it's a great look at the improvments made in breast implants.

I also want to know how long the actual feature is going to be. If they did like the ECW one and gave it not even three hours, but at least two this'll be good. Like, must-buy good.
